“Mary was amazing she knew exactly what to do for the weekend while I was away and was able to spend time with my dog Jax and Cat Scout. I will definitely use Mary again in the future”
“Nexsy was incredible. She helped on short notice and still snuck in a meet and greet. Polite, kind, and very understanding of our dogs. She went above and beyond during the time she spent with them by doing some helpful behavioral training. We felt they were in safe and capable hands. Highly recommended!”
“EJ was amazing! I needed someone to watch Willy and she was quick to respond and willing to meet us beforehand. Willy absolutely loved her, it was evident by the many photos she sent to keep me updated! I came home to an apartment just as clean as I left it and a very happy pup! I will definitely have her watch Willy again in the future! Thank you, EJ!!”
“Haley was awesome! Communicative, punctual, and responsible. She was great with our sweet (and sometimes crazy!) girl, and she left our home in perfect condition. We had total peace of mind leaving our dog in Haley’s care, and I would highly recommend her!”
“Julissa was wonderful! We have a lot of pets and she handled everyone with ease. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely use her again! Thank you so much!”
“We just booked Samantha for the first time while we were out of the country for a week. She took excellent care of our dogs and kept us updated via text and photo. It was so nice to know that our puppies were so well taken care of and it made our vacation that much more enjoyable! I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Adara did a fabulous job caring for our fur baby, Toby, in our home when we went away for the weekend! Toby is a bit (ok, VERY) quirky, and he doesn't do well with changes to his routine. Adara went above and beyond when caring for him. We felt very comfortable with her in our home, as well. Toby gives Adara a 10/10 for pet sitting, and so do we!”
“Thank you for communicating with me throughout your stay. I’m really glad to have feedback on how my dog is doing and what additional support I need to give him. I really look forward to you sitting with him again.”
About: Hi there! My family owned dogs my entire life. My brother and I both cared for all of our childhood dogs/pets. My grandparents raised Fidelco dogs and as I would spend my summers with them, I was always exposed to these amazing little guys. As a teenager I would spend my summers home with our two family dogs. In my early college years, I dog sat for a couple of my mom's previous work friends, sometimes for a week at a time. As an adult, I raised my parent's dog from a puppy and currently own a dog of my own. I've also owned other pets such as cats, birds, and hedgehogs. I love to cuddle and play! I have lots of love to give! I'm the crazy lady you see talking to their dog while they walk them. So if you're dog is a good listener and loves cuddling, petting, and fetching, we'll be perfect mateys! I’m a children’s librarian and have a bit of a weird schedule. I work one night a week and one Saturday a month. I’m a single dog mom and have the flexibility to stay with your pet or possibly have your pet stay with me. They just have to be ok with a cranky old dachshund! I can walk your dog before work (8 am) or after work (5 pm) or any time on weekends. I’m very careful with peoples pets. The decisions I make for my own dog isn’t what I will make for someone else’s. Your pet is your precious baby and I will treat them as such. I follow the rules and guidelines set out by the owner and if I’m giving the green light to, your pet will be SPOILED. Car rides, couch snuggles, and outdoor adventures!
“Kaitlynn was amazing! My dogs have special needs and their care instructions are very specific. She kept their routine and did perfect! She gave my dogs much love and attention. She is the only sitter I would trust with my dogs. After I got back home, I asked one of my dogs (she uses button communication) if Kaitlynn was nice and she said yes! 🐾”

About: I’ve been around dogs all of my life and cared for them for 4 consecutive years on my own while juggling life. I understand the ups and downs of taking care of animals and I carry no judgment! I am looking for something to keep me on my toes! What’s better than hanging out with animals! Making your pet happy makes me happy.

Metro Center pet parents share their Rover experiences
Our chocolate girl was loved the 6 days we were gone. When she first met Matt she was so chill, laid right down and was so comfortable with him. With in a few seconds I knew she was going to have a great time. He stayed with her in her home and was a very clean house guest! Thanks again Matt! I highly recommend you!
Julissa was great! We had a family get away, and Julissa took care of our clingy frenchie, and our 7 year old yellow lab granddog. We were nervous, as our frenchie puppy has never been away from us. When Julissa sent her first photos, I could see both dogs were very happy. When we arrived home there was no panicked, frenzied welcome, they were both content yet happy to see us.
This was my first time using a dog sitter through Rover and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Marie exceeded every expectation I had. From the moment we met, I knew Pete would be in great hands—and I was right. She sent me frequent updates and so many adorable photos, which made it so much easier to be away from my dog. It was clear they bonded quickly—honestly, I think my dog was a little disappointed when I came back! Not only was my dog happy, safe, and loved, but Marie also left my home in better shape than I left it. That level of care and attention is rare. She’s truly a gem, and we were so lucky to have found her. I’d recommend Marie to everyone without hesitation!
